Speeds are estimates for a single request — one conversation at a time — calculated from memory bandwidth, model size and quantisation. Real throughput varies with the inference runtime and its version. Figures published by hardware vendors measure many simultaneous requests and are much higher.

What the numbers mean
Capacity and bandwidth
Memory
4 GB
Bandwidth
81 GB/s
Largest model
DeciLM 6B
At 4 GB of GDDR5 the Radeon Pro 460 is limited to the smaller end of the catalogue. About 3.6 GB is actually available to a runtime, and a model has to fit entirely inside it before generating anything at all.
At 81 GB/s across a 128-bit bus, bandwidth is this card's real constraint. Every token requires reading the entire model out of memory, so a large model will feel slow here even when it fits.
That comes from a 1.27 GHz memory clock across the bus width above. Widening the bus and raising the clock are the two levers a manufacturer has, which is why a card with unremarkable cores can still generate quickly.
Put together, the largest model that fits is DeciLM 6B at 5.7B, running Q3_K_M and producing around 12.7 tokens per second.
The chip and how it was built
The Radeon Pro 460 is built on the Baffin graphics processor, using AMD's GCN 4.0 architecture, as part of the Radeon Pro Mac(400 Series) generation.
The chip is manufactured by GlobalFoundries, on a 14 nm process, with a die measuring 123 mm², holding 3 billion transistors. A smaller process generally means more performance for the same power, though for language models it matters far less than the memory subsystem.
It was released in October 2016, roughly 9 years ago. Inference software support tends to follow hardware by a year or two, so a card of this age generally has mature, well-optimised code paths available to it.
Compute throughput, and why it matters less than it looks
FP16
1.9 TFLOPS
FP64
116.1 GFLOPS
On paper the Radeon Pro 460 reaches 1.9 TFLOPS at half precision and 1.9 TFLOPS at single precision. These are peak figures no real workload sustains, and generating text reaches only a small fraction of them — decoding is limited by memory rather than arithmetic, which is why a card can look enormously powerful here and still produce tokens at an ordinary rate.
Double-precision throughput is 116.1 GFLOPS. It has no bearing on running a language model — no inference runtime uses it — but it separates datacentre parts from consumer ones, since the latter deliberately restrict it.
Clocks run from 850 MHz at base to 907 MHz boosted. Worth far less here than on a gaming benchmark: raising the clock speeds up the arithmetic, and the arithmetic is not what generation is waiting on.
Cache and processing units
The Radeon Pro 460 has 16 KB of L1 cache, backed by 1 MB of L2. Cache absorbs a share of the memory traffic that would otherwise hit the main bus, which is the one place on this page where a number other than bandwidth quietly affects generation speed — a large L2 lets more of the working set stay close to the cores.
There are 1,024 shading units, 64 texture mapping units, and 16 render output units. These drive graphics workloads and contribute to prompt processing, but they sit idle for much of the time a model spends generating a reply.
Power, size and installation
Power draw
35 W
The Radeon Pro 460 is rated at 35 W. Running a language model keeps a card busy in bursts rather than continuously — it draws hard while generating and idles between requests — so sustained draw over a working day is usually well below the rated figure.
The board occupies a igp. Worth checking against the case and power supply already in the machine, since the largest cards need considerably more of both than a typical desktop provides.
It connects over PCIe 3.0 x8. The interface governs how quickly a model is loaded from disk into the card, not how fast it runs once there, so a narrower link costs a few seconds at startup and nothing thereafter.

Step by step
How to work out the tokens per second of a Radeon Pro 460
You do not have to calculate anything by hand — the gputps.com calculator on this page has already worked it out for every model this card can hold. Reading off the answer takes six steps.
-
01
Find the model in the table
The table lists 97 models this Radeon Pro 460 can run. Search by name, or by size — typing 27b matches on the parameter count even when the name never states it.
-
02
Match the context to your work
Set the context to your real working length. Short questions cost almost nothing; a long document can consume a large share of the card's 4 GB.
-
03
Choose how far you will compress
By default the table picks the least-compressed copy that fits. Setting a floor removes models that only qualify through heavy compression.
-
04
Take the range as the answer
The figures are calculated, not measured. 26.9 tok/s on Gemma 3 QAT 1B is the fastest result on this card, and like every row it carries a range that reflects how much the runtime matters.
-
05
Read the fit verdict last
A tight fit runs but leaves no room to raise the context later; comfortable has headroom. The memory column shows what each model needs against the 4 GB available.
-
06
Cross-check against other hardware
Every model name in the table links to its own page, which runs the same calculation across every card we hold. That is where you see whether the Radeon Pro 460 is the right buy for it or merely a card that fits.
Answers
Radeon Pro 460 — common questions
What bus interface does the Radeon Pro 460 use?
It uses PCIe 3.0 x8. This governs how fast a model is loaded onto the card rather than how fast it runs once loaded, so it costs a few seconds at startup and nothing during generation.
Is the Radeon Pro 460 good for running local AI models?
Its memory limits it to smaller models though its bandwidth means generation will feel slow on larger models. In total it runs 97 of the models we track. Whether that is enough depends entirely on which model you want — the table above answers that directly.
Can a Radeon Pro 460 run a model that does not fit in its memory?
It can be split, with the overflow held in system memory — but that part drags the whole thing down, and none of the 4 GB figures on this page assume it.
Would two Radeon Pro 460 cards be twice as fast?
Capacity adds, throughput does not. Two of them give you 8 GB to work with rather than twice the tokens per second — every figure here is for a single Radeon Pro 460.
What AI models can a Radeon Pro 460 run?
97 of the 679 open-weight language models we track fit on a Radeon Pro 460 and can be run locally on it. The table on this page lists every one, with the memory it needs, the quantisation it runs at and an estimated generation speed.
What is the largest AI model a Radeon Pro 460 can run?
The largest model in our catalogue that fits on a Radeon Pro 460 is DeciLM 6B at 5.7B parameters, compressed to Q3_K_M. It generates roughly 12.7 tokens per second and needs about 3.5 GB of the card's memory.
How many tokens per second does a Radeon Pro 460 produce?
It depends on the model. On a Radeon Pro 460 the fastest model we track is Gemma 3 QAT 1B at about 26.9 tokens per second, while larger models run proportionally slower because each token requires reading the whole model out of memory once. Speeds are estimates for a single conversation at a time.
How much memory does a Radeon Pro 460 have?
A Radeon Pro 460 has 4 GB of GDDR5 memory. Around a tenth of that is reserved by the inference runtime and the driver, leaving roughly 3.6 GB available for a model and its conversation.
What is the memory bandwidth of a Radeon Pro 460?
The Radeon Pro 460 has 81 GB/s of memory bandwidth, across a 128-bit memory bus. This is the single best predictor of how fast it generates text, because producing each token means reading the entire model out of memory once.
What type of memory does a Radeon Pro 460 use?
It uses GDDR5 clocked at 1.27 GHz. HBM types are found on datacentre accelerators and carry far more bandwidth than the GDDR used on desktop cards, which is why they generate tokens considerably faster at the same capacity.
Who makes the Radeon Pro 460?
The Radeon Pro 460 is a AMD product, with the chip manufactured by GlobalFoundries, on a 14 nm process.
When was the Radeon Pro 460 released?
The Radeon Pro 460 was released in October 2016.
How much power does a Radeon Pro 460 use?
The Radeon Pro 460 has a rated board power of 35 W. Generating text draws hard in bursts and idles between requests, so average consumption over a working session is normally well below the rated figure.
How much cache does a Radeon Pro 460 have?
The Radeon Pro 460 has 16 KB of L1 cache, and 1 MB of L2 cache. Cache absorbs part of the memory traffic that would otherwise reach the main bus, so a larger L2 gives a modest lift to generation speed beyond what bandwidth alone predicts.
What are the TFLOPS of a Radeon Pro 460?
The Radeon Pro 460 is rated at 1.9 TFLOPS at half precision and 1.9 TFLOPS at single precision. These are peak arithmetic ceilings rather than achievable rates, and text generation reaches only a small fraction of them because it is limited by memory bandwidth instead.
Does the Radeon Pro 460 support CUDA?
No. CUDA is NVIDIA-only, and the Radeon Pro 460 is a AMD card. It runs language models through ROCm, Vulkan or Metal depending on the software, which are less mature than the CUDA path — our estimates apply a penalty for that.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the hardware. If you already know which model you want and need to know what it takes to run it, start from the model instead.
